They are losing considerable sleep and their dreams are disturbed by the proverbially blindfolded woman holding aloft the scales. We have no doubt that the Secretary's ears burn constantly, and if be is at all sensitive it would make him very unhappy to know the very many unpleasant things these parasites are saying of him. No man whois deserving of a pen- sion, who carries honorable disabili- ties received in active service, need or will have the least uneasiness. His pension is more apt to be in- creased than diminished. There is not an honest, fair-minded man to- day in the democratic party who be- grudges the deserving old soldier his pension. Rather would they give him muchmore. The worst en- ewies the old soldier ever had are the men who have forgotten decency, honor, pride and patriotism and are making this unreasonable and dis- graceful raid upon the national treasury. They have captured the Grand Army, an organization form- ed for benevolent and social pur poses, and turned it into a robber machine to loet the treasury. When the honest and deserving old soldier protests he is silenced in his own post, or when a post is honest and patriotic enough to denounce the robbery, its charter is withdrawn and it is disbanded by this political machine.

DEATH IN A KA) horse HOTEL the Floors of a Fort Scott House Give Way Suddenly Fort Scott, Kas, June 26 —The Tremont hotel in this city collapsed suddenly and without the slightest warning at,9:30 o'clock this morning. One hundred persons were in it at the time and it 1s almost certain that at least four were killed while sever- al persons were more or less injured. Young Woodward was in the dining room and was badly hurt. He says that a'l but about four of the occupants have been ac counted for. The house which was four stories high and was built of brick, seems to have split in the middle and the east side fell out from under the mansurd roof, which still hangs in the air. The west half is considered so unsafe that no one is allowed to approach the mass of debris. It is surrounded by thous- ands of excited citizens, some who insist on searching for the victims but are prevented by the police and fire department. All of the occu- pants of the west side of the hotel twenty seven in number, were res cued by firemen with their ladders. Mechanics are at work attempting 986,591.03. In Oklahoma 1,262 names will be stricken from the pension roll and the payment in pensions reduced $151,440. At the time the present administration came into power there were 2,984 names on the roll and they received last year as pen- sion money $468,191.63. The Indian Territory, while re- of our government was absolutely in its power and the representatives of the people in congress were held in constant fear of their political heads if they did not vote to subsi- dize this monsier. That has at last been changed, and none too soon to save the country from bankruptcy. Men are now in charge who have the to support the unsafe walls in order that a search for victims may be in stituted The first person rescued from the ruins was Eusie Colwell. Sbe was badly hurt. Day Clerk Harkey was soon afterward taken from the mass of ruins also badly hurt Then came Ida Morgan who was badly but not fatally hurt though she fell from the fourth floor and was buried under the debris. The Tremont house was the second hotel Kansas City. Mo, June 22.— Judge John F. Philips of the United States district court, detivered bis ultimatum io the case of the Tebo and Neosho Valiey bondholders againet the county of 8. Clair to day. He proposesthe issuance of bonds to the extent of 50 per ceut of the indebtedness payable in equal install nerve to investigate the right, be just to the deserving and say nay to those who would defraud the gov- ernment. The only ones who have a cause to feel aggrieved or uneasy at Secre- tary Smith's rulings are the pension agents and those who are undeserv- ing of pensions and would defraud the government. The deserving old soldier can rest secure in the certain conviction that he will not be de- prived of his pension, nor will it be reduced. None know this better than the camp-followers who are making the kick against the pension rulings of the department. The political head of Major An- drew Downing, the veteran pension examiner with headquarters at To- peka, Kan., has finally dropped into the basket. The name of his suc- cessor is T. F. Dennis. Maj. Down- ing was appointed by President Garfield, and has held the office con- tinuously ever since, serving in twelve different states. Mr. Dennis, the appointee, is a democrat. Congressman Chas. H. Morgan has recommended the following gen- tlemen of Nevada to constitute the board of pension examiners for Ver- non county: Drs. C. A. Rockwood, £. A. Dulin, L. H. Callaway. The new board, politically, will be com- posed of three democrats. Charles F. Peck, the New York ex-commissioner of labor who made himself famous during the last cam | paign, by causing certain state docu- ments to be burned, failed to appear for trial. rope.

This will necessitate a change in pension boards in every county in the state.

If commutation of the sentences of the negro man and woman, who were to hang here within the last few weeks, has resulted in the whole- salo breaking out of crime among the colored population of the city,as Chief Speers intimates. it were bet- ter that stern justice had been suf- fered to claim her victims. Sympa- thy is a very good thing,and a nature without the milk of human kindness must be a barren one indeed, but when sympathy stoops to loosen the chains of lawlessness, it is wrong. This rule holds whether the sym- pathy is of that sentimental quality that gathered around Carlyle Harris, or the pure love of their kind that prompted those who secured lease of life for Smith and Amanda Um- ble.—K.
